How to clean a Mass Air Flow sensor (MAF Sensor)

[Draenor]

I have not cleaned mine. I did install the Granatelli MAS and it didn't make a difference. This was back when I first got the truck and the tune. So I sold the Granatelli.

Good deal, the stock MAF can flow alot.

I would recommend doing this atleast once a year especially if your are running an oiled air filter.

A friend brought his S-10 4X4 truck over a few months ago with the SES light on and running rough.I plugged my code reader and found a code relating to the MAF.We removed it and saw some crud buildup on the little wires across the opening.I sprayed them with some MAF cleaner,let it dry for a few minutes,re-installed it,erased the code,started the engine and it ran alot smoother...and no code Goes to show you it DOES make a difference

I think the statement on the can about adds 4 to 10 horsepower.
